Millions of people will be able to track each and every move by friends and family through their mobile phones，thanks to a new feature launched by Google yesterday．
The new system named “Latitude” uses a map to show exactly where a loved one is at any time, sometimes discovering their location to a few meters．Worried parents will be able to check up on where their children have got to after school, friends can meet for a quick drink if they see they are nearby and wives will be able to see if their husbands really are working late at the office．
The feature was made available immediately on millions of mobile phones that can access the web，such as the Black Berry．Within weeks Google hopes to launch a new one that will also work on computers as well．
“Once you've shared your location，you can hide it from all of your friends at once，or you can turn off Google Latitude completely at any time．” said a Google spokesman．“You can adjust your privacy settings in Latitude so that you share as much or as little about your location as you want，with whom you want．”
Google said that the company had tested the product with thousands of people to make sure that it was safe for the customers，but experts were not so sure．Simon Davies，director of Privacy International，said Latitude would open up a “privacy minefield（危险地带）”．
“It's about the little white lies．You might be avoiding going to work, and now your boss might be able to see that you're at Twickenham instead of at home．”said Ian Angell, an information expert at the London School of Economics．“You've already got mobile phone technology where husbands and wives track each other in secret．Now Google is so widely used that it will only worsen the situation．”

Members of Parliament (MPs) warned that the privacy（隐藏）of thousands of mobile phone users is in danger today because of Google's new tracking system. In a motion（提案）,they also warned that the system offers live tracking of mobiles through a website and called on Google to examine the service.
The Latitude system can find where a user is . This is then broadcasted live to Google's website. Once the service is activated , the position of a person's phone appears as a blue dot on a map on the screen of whoever is allowed to monitor（监控）them . The Latitude feature is being developed by Google as a "fun" way to "keep tabs on someone special", More than a million users around the world have already signed up to the service, Google claims .
However, concerns have been raised about the system. MPs have written to Google demanding extra security(安全) safeguards on the service。
Mr. Brake , one of the MPs who raised the motion, said , "In Britain, we have a tradition of fighting for our freedom. With this new system we face a threat to it . I demand MPs to support this motion and encourage the Government to take action to ensure that Latitude does not represent a threat to our privacy. or our freedom could be in danger."
Google today insisted there was no threat to privacy .It said it was up to users to decide whether to make their location visible to other people and to decide who could monitor their position .The service was designed to help people keep in touch .
However , human rights watchdog Privacy International analyzed the service and claimed it was open to abuse（滥用）. Its report claimed employers could supply employees with phones already set up to use the service without their knowledge, or that users could simply sign up their partner's or child's mobile phone without telling them .
